G                           Cadd9     Dadd11      G          Cadd9  Dadd11
Standing at the door of the Pink Flamingo crying in the rain
G               Cadd9  Dadd11        G                             Cadd9  Dadd11
It was a kind of so-so love and I'm going to make sure it doesn't happen again
G       Cadd9    Dadd11       G               Cadd9  Dadd11
You and I had to be the standing joke of the year
G                  Cadd9  Dadd1           G                Cadd9   Dadd11
You were a runaround,   a lost and found and not for me, I feel

[Chorus]
Cadd9     Em        Bm  Cadd9   Dadd11  
Take your hands off me, hee_____ey
Cadd9     Em      Bm       Cadd9  Dadd11
I don't belong to you, you see_______
Cadd9  Em          Bm          Cadd9  Dadd11
Take a look in my face for the last   time
Cadd9             Em    
I never knew you, you never knew me
Bm         Cadd9 Dadd11 
Say hello, goodbye
G      Cadd9     Dadd11    G     Cadd9 Dadd11
   Say hello and wave goodbye________

[Verse]
G                         Cadd9        Dadd11
We tried to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt
    G                     Cadd9     Dadd11
And me in a suit, but it just wasn't me
G                            Cadd9          Dadd11           G         Cadd9 Dadd11
You're used to wearing less, and now you're life's a mess so insecure you see
G       
Well I've put up with all the scenes 
    Cadd9       Dadd1        G                      Cadd9 Dadd1
and this is one scene that's going to be played my way

[Repeat Chorus]
G      Cadd9     Dadd11    G     Cadd9 Dadd11
   Say hello and wave goodbye________

[Verse]
G                         Cadd9         Dadd11   G            Cadd9 Dadd11
Under the deep red lights I can see the makeup   sliding down
     G                        Cadd9    Dadd11
Well hey little girl you will always make up
   G                  Cadd9  Dadd11
So take off that unbecoming frown
G                 Cadd9  Dadd11             G                     Cadd9  Dadd11
  As for me, well, I'll find someone who's not going cheap in the sales
  G                            Cadd9        Dadd11
A nice little housewife who'll give me the steady life
    G              Cadd9   Dadd11
And not keep going off the rails

[Repeat Chorus]
G      Cadd9     Dadd11    G     Cadd9 Dadd11
   Say hello and wave goodbye________
G      Cadd9     Dadd11    G     Cadd9 Dadd11
   Say hello and wave goodbye________
